Happy peasant girl

Chapter 315 Improving Life (2)
After Jasmine went out, Linqingxi called Ruoxin into the house again: "Ruoxin, go to the village and pick up my father and my fourth brother, and tell them that I have something to look for."

"Subordinates obey!"

After Ruo Xin left, Lin Qingxi took out the white paper and her special charcoal pen to write and draw. After Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qinghao walked in, she still leaned on the desk without stopping.

"Father, fourth brother, please sit on the chairs for a while, I'll be fine soon." After Lin Qingxi finished speaking, she began to draw seriously again.

Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qinghao sat lightly on the chair behind Lin Qingxi, they even took their breaths lightly, for fear of disturbing Lin Qingxi.

After Lin Qingxi finished drawing, she stretched her stiff neck, then took her drawing and got up with a smile and walked to Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qinghao.

"Father, fourth brother, do you think there is anyone who can build such a large pot? The diameter of this pot should be one foot wide, and the pot table should be three feet high. The stove here should be wider. The best people can use it as a Use the table." Lin Qingxi took out a design drawing of a cauldron and explained it carefully to Lin Zhongguo and Lin Qinghao.

"Girl Xi, what are you doing?" Lin Zhongguo looked at the things Lin Qingxi handed him and asked in puzzlement.

"Father, the weather is so cold now, and many meals are cold after cooking. It has become even colder these days. It has become a problem for the female workers in Nayuan and the people outside to eat, and they have to cook for so many people. It's very hard. I plan to build a big pot table like this, and then put a big pot in the middle, put enough seasoning in it, wait until the water in the pot is boiled, just rinse the vegetables and eat it, so that you can eat hot food at any time Things." Lin Qingxi planned to build a super big hot pot, so that it would look hot when eating.

"Xi girl, such a big pot requires a lot of firewood, and your pot is different from ordinary pots, why is it divided into two halves?" Lin Qinghao saw the large pot in the middle of the drawing paper. It was separated by an iron plate, and it was obviously a strange pot that was divided in half.

"Fourth Brother, this is called Yuanyang Pot. One side makes a spicy soup base, and the other side makes a non-spicy soup base, so that everyone can choose their favorite flavor. In addition, I will let four people stand on both sides of the pot, Use a large colander to serve food for everyone, so you don’t worry that someone will not be able to reach it, and then ask someone to boil some hot water for preparation, and when the water in the pot is low, you can just add water to it, which is very convenient.” There are nearly There are more than 3000 people. It is not a small problem for these people to eat, and it is even more tiring to cook.

"It's not easy to find someone to make this big iron pot. I'll go to the town to ask later, and these big spoons and chopsticks need to be specially made." Lin Zhongguo also knows that Nayuan is only a female worker now There are more than 2000 people, and there are hundreds of refugees living outside the gate, so we have to think about the issue of food.

"Father, girl Xi, then I'll go find some masons. By the way, girl Xi, where are you going to put this cauldron?" Now there are not many places inside and outside the garden, and the open space in the garden is still open after the new year. To build a house.

"Fourth brother, isn't there a deserted grove outside the gate of our farm? I don't think it is of much use now. Later, people will cut down those trees and use them as firewood. The stove is built there, and the chimney Just go in the direction of the mountain."

Originally, Lin Qingxi could leave these things to her people, but since Lin Zhongguo lost a palm, his will was very depressed, so she planned to entrust some things to him, so that he would not feel He was useless, and Lin Qinghao could just be there to help him.

"Okay, it's okay to leave it to me. Girl Xi, do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll go to the mason first, and then I'll take someone to cut down the grove." Lin Qinghao said.

"There is nothing else, fourth brother, go get busy first, the time should be quicker, the Chinese New Year is only a few days away, if you finish the work one day earlier, everyone can have a hot meal one day earlier." Lin Qingxi said with a smile.

"Then I'll go and ask the blacksmith, Miss Xi, I'll take the blueprint first, if the blacksmith in the town can't make it, I'll go to Fucheng to ask." Lin Zhongguo also got up anxiously and said.

"Okay, here are the blueprints of the iron pot and iron spoon. Take it, daddy. Fourth brother, this is the blueprint of the stove. You need to ask someone to leave a vent for me under the side of the stove. I can use it. Qiangwei I have prepared a carriage for you, so you can make a carriage and go faster." Now when her family members go out, Lin Qingxi will have people secretly protect them, and Lin Nianyu and her younger siblings have also sent secret guards by their side.

"Okay, I see, you are busy, I'm leaving first!" Lin Qinghao took the blueprint and went out with Lin Zhongguo.

After her father and brother left, Lin Qingxi still had a blueprint in her hand, so she asked Ruo Xin to call Ding Xiaoru's father and two elder brothers over.

Soon, Ding Qiangsheng took his two sons into the side hall of the rice garden, where Linqingxi was waiting for the three of them.

Now, Ding Xiaoru, who has grown up, has become a female worker in Nayuan. Her mother helps cook in the back kitchen of Nayuan, while her father and brother do some carpentry in Nayuan. They are considered long-term workers hired by Nayuan.

"I've met the girl from my host family. I wonder why you called the younger ones here?" Lin Qingxi is the benefactor of his family, and Ding Qiangsheng respects her very much.

"Uncle Ding, you don't have to be so polite. I have a design drawing of a bellows here. I hope you father and son can help me make a bigger bellows. Besides, after finishing the big bellows, I will make some smaller bellows. "The design of the bellows is very simple, but with the help of the bellows, a lot of manpower can be saved when lighting the fire.

Ding Qiangsheng took the blueprint given to him by Linqingxi, and Linqingxi explained to him clearly what he didn't understand, and then the father and son went out to hurry up to make the bellows.

After finishing these things, Lin Qingxi took a carriage to the village again, and then saw Yan Yun leading a group of children practicing martial arts in the village square, and many villagers watched regardless of the cold.

Lin Qingxi stopped the carriage, and then walked to Yun Yun's side: "How about it, can these children bear it?"

She saw that Lin Nianyu's and Lin Nianshui's little faces were flushed with cold, and so were the other children, and among the children practicing martial arts, there were actually several older children from the village, Xiao Shengzi was one of them.

"Don't worry, there is no one who does not practice martial arts without suffering. You have also stayed in the pool yourself, and they are far behind you." Yan Yun whispered beside Lin Qingxi.

Ye's and Mu's are not far away, Yan Yun thought, Lin Qingxi probably doesn't want her family to know how hard she was practicing martial arts.

"It's better to be strict with them. Only strict teachers can produce high-quality apprentices! Ha ha! Go ahead, I have something to do with my grandma and the others." Lin Qingxi said to Yan Yun with a smile.
